Sprawling convention hall where a young Cassius Clay shocked the world and boxing history was made.
This guide to Miami Beach Convention Center returns to February 25, 1964, when twenty-two-year-old Cassius Clay faced heavyweight champion Sonny Liston, the most feared puncher alive, inside the hall behind you. You'll hear about the wild weigh-in that morning, when Clay's blood-pressure spike nearly got the fight called off, and about the tactics behind his taunts aimed straight at Liston's head. It traces how the odds against Clay stretched as high as eight to one, before the bell rang for round one.
